I'll bet this has been discussed before, but what's the practical difference between a "C" and and "H"?


Some folks claim the C ring to be a stronger action and essential for big bore applications, others will go as far as saying that H rings are not M98's because they don't follow the oringinal design.

A lot of us got over it a long time ago and use H rings without a second thought. They are both proven designs.
